  4. Lol

    Trump increasing tariffs on Canadian goods by 10% ‘over and above what Americans are paying now’

    Fixed that for you

  5. Well don’t let that concern you canada. That is our internal import tax and has nothing to do with you. You can always sell stuff to other countries

  7. Trump is what happens when you let the morons in your society vote more enthusiastically than everyone else.
    For anyone in Canada who can’t be bothered to vote… pay attention.

  8. Buddy couldn’t even remember what the tariffs are at now.

  9. We want to move manufacturing to the United States by making it more expensive to manufacture in the United States. Brilliant.

  12. Putin can bomb a kindergarten and still be a dear friend …but that’s an ad that makes the tariffs go up Vs an ally(!?)

    BTW – totally love the idea that you need permission of the Ronal Reagan foundation to quote him -insert facepalm-

  13. Don’t care. Will try 10% harder to not buy American now.

  14. 10% more tariffs MAGAts have to pay, that will show Canada!

  15. Can’t appease a bully, they’ll always find more reasons to bully you

  16. Next week he’ll say Canada has been funneling weapons to Antifa, Hegseth is probably already drawing up the invasion plans for the generals thin and muscular enough to execute it.

  17. Like he was ever going to play ball. Americans are fucking traitors.

  18. I hope our government can see this as a wonderful opportunity. We have the chances to diversify our trade and become a real global player. Yes, there might be some short term pain, but it should be very worth it in the long term if we play our cards right. The US is a leaky ship and we would have gone down with them when they start to sink

  19. We aren’t paying anything. This is all coming out of the pockets of Americans. Raise them another 50% I do not care.

  20. Gotta give Ford credit, the ad has gone completely viral.

  22. “I am going to punish my people because someone upset me”

  23. I thought the tarrifs were an emergency because America is in an existential crisis. So how exactly does increasing tariff because you are butthurt over an ad even play into that fiction, or come off as anything except a toddler throwing a temper tantrum?

  26. Someday soon he will die from some medical complications and the world will rejoice.

  27. Did we bring back the digital service tax yet? Carney dropped it to convince them to play ball. But they’re not playing ball so hit the oligarchs where it hurts ffs

  29. Trump is a moron. Countries don’t pay tariffs, people pay them on imports, hiking their costs.

    Well done to the people who voted in for Trump for cheaper prices, because now your cheap stuff is being hiked whenever some senile geriatric gets angry at an advert

  30. well, the bad taste just keeps rolling … we had decided not to go to the US this year to our home there. Now, we are just going to sell. We had decided to buy my wife a new car this year but that plan has changed as the one she actually wanted comes from Kentucky … not going to buy a US made car. Period. We are actively looking to move purchases of anything we can away from any US made product, and are buying produce, meats and vegetables that do not come from the US. Honestly just tired of it – sick to death of the crap and noise – I can make choices for myself and I’m so sick of the ignorance – easy decisions.

  31. I’m so tired of hearing my country’s name in this piece of shit’s mouth.

  32. The “they” he is referring to is the American people. Canadians will continue to boycott America and won’t being paying anything related to these tariffs.

    It’s neat to see Trump freaking out after hearing Reagan’s own opinion on tariffs.

  33. I’m here in Canada. I don’t GAF Donnie boy. Flash up your jet fighter and go dump more shit on your citizens or something.

  34. “Senile clown throws out more numbers that will hurt his own people”

    We Canadian really dont care. We’ve moved on. We have so many countries overjoyed to build new trade relationship with us.

    We dont care, Donald.

  35. It’s actually hilarious that he said Canada was “caught red-handed”… Can somebody please explain to him what the heck advertising is supposed to do?

    Canada didn’t get caught – it’s putting sunshine on this mental infection that America has been experiencing

    Read Ronald Reagan‘s lips, Mr. Trump: Tariffs hurt Americans.

  36. STOP USING THE WORD TARRIFF. Call them what they are: Import TAX.

    > Trump is increasing the IMPORT TAX on Canadian goods by 10% over and above what **Americans** are paying now.

  37. Trump in 2025: “Reagan LOVED Tariffs for purposes of national security and the economy”.

    [Reagan in 1988](https://youtu.be/Tp1T7kPEdDY?si=WMSMehgje_8Q3dp9): “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies, they are our allies. **We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world** – all while cynically waving the American flag. The expansion of the international economy is not a foreign invasion, it is an American triumph. One we worked hard to achieve and something central to our vision of a peaceful and prosperous world of freedom.“

  38. So American consumers will pay 10% more because of your arbitrary decision. Got it. Really sticking it to Canada there

  39. Canada should shut down potash exports to the US. Though given the average American is as fat as a fucking manatee, would take them years to starve.
